Experience your images in a whole new way with fotoARRAY!
fotoARRAY is a program that allows you to experience your pictures in a whole new way. It sees itself as a presentation program with management functionality. From the first line of coder it was designed to provide an intuitive access to the stored images, including the possibility to scroll in a collection from beginning to end without reloading delays.
It is not comparable to programs that open directories display the contained images as small previews, because it always has access to all imported images through its database. This makes it possible to organize images in collections (albums/keywords) as required. fotoARRAY can display the previews at lightning speed and the built-in slide show mode can be accessed at any time.

fotoARRAY is a program for managing an image archive. But it is so much more than that. It lets you browse through your collection and relive your memories. It starts in a few seconds and lets you see your photos immediately. Since fotoARRAY works with locally stored thumbnails, it's extremely fast and you can see images that are on external media, even if they're not connected.
With "Broadcast" fotoARRAY includes a tool to share images and other data with mobile device. You can not only download images from fotoARRAY on your smartphone, but you can also send files from there to a folder on your desktop computer (requires license). Since no APP, no account and no cloud service is required, you can use this function to pass on images to your visitors, as long as they logged into your local WIFI.
You can use the licenses edition of fotoARRAY also create a HTML image gallery which you can upload to a web presence. To do so fotoARRAY uses a powerful template based system, which allows it to modify the layout of the web pages.
fotoARRAY is the perfect tool to organize a large collection of images. For this, many of the usual attributes, such as title, description, etc. can be assigned to the images.
Further more albums can be created, which can then contain a selection of images. In addition, keywords can also be assigned. Both attributes are hierarchically organized, which means they can be displayed in a tree structure which makes it easy to locate certain elements, even if there are a lot of items.
By simply selecting captions in the tree structure, the assigned images can be displayed. For further subdivision, a timeline can be activated, so that the displayed images can be grouped according to the day when they were taken.
(1) Pre-select images by keyword (2) refine the selection by date
fotoARRAY always works with previews in about HD quality that are loaded from the database. So previews are available if the original images are not available, or if you want to avoid the slow access to an external hard drive.
If needed, the previews can easily be dragged&dropped or copied&pasted into many word processors or e-mail programs. You can select the data which should be copied, previews, the original image data or the developed versions of the images, if available.
If you want to edit images or use them in a slideshow or photo book, it interacts perfectly with external programs. Not only can you send images to these applications, but fotoARRAY can also transfer parameter files back to the original folder so that the changes are there the next time you export images to the external program. For Windows a tool is included, which can easily be accessed from many programs to optimize the postprocessing of images.
